National Compensation Survey

The National Compensation Survey (NCS) is a comprehensive government report that provides detailed information about wages, benefits, and compensation practices across different industries and regions in the United States. It helps to understand how much employers are paying workers, what benefits are offered (like health insurance or retirement plans), and how compensation varies by job type or location. This data supports policymakers, businesses, and workers in making informed decisions related to employment, wages, and economic trends. The NCS is a key resource for analyzing overall compensation patterns in the U.S. workforce.
